Good to see our leaders actively promoting 'Make in India' on a global stage. Japan is known for quality and precision. A partnership there can bring high-tech manufacturing to UP. But I hope the focus is also on sustainable development and not just numbers.

The GSDP growth from 13 to 36 lakh crore is impressive, no doubt. But as a resident of Lucknow, I want to see this investment improve our daily infrastructure - better roads, 24/7 power, and cleaner cities. The benefits should reach the common man.

Interesting to see the focus on "scale with skill and speed." For this to work, there needs to be a parallel investment in vocational training and education in UP. We need to prepare our youth for these new industries. Otherwise, the jobs will go to outsiders.

Japan and Singapore visits back-to-back? CM Yogi is on a mission! This kind of global outreach for a state was unheard of a decade ago. It shows how Indian states are now competing on the world stage. UP's size and population make it a giant market. Investors should take note.

While the investment numbers sound great, I have a respectful criticism. We often hear about proposals and MoUs, but the actual ground-breaking and job creation takes years. Transparency in tracking these projects and their progress would build more public trust. The intent is good, but execution is key.
